Although it's difficult to explain, not knowing exactly what happened, Anat had no intention of hiding it.
He clearly shared with his combat brothers the events of that split second.
Along with the explosion came countless steel ball projectiles.
Packing steel balls into the bomb was a rather insidious move but undeniably effective. The steel balls, scattered by the explosion, carried massive kinetic energy, greatly expanding the lethal range, turning any lightly armored unit into mush under such intense shrapnel bombardment.
However, it was obvious that the space warriors, although 'infantry,' could not be considered lightly armored. The specially treated cersteel armor provided defense at certain points that was even on par with that of the Lion Tanks.
If a steel ball hit a vulnerable area, such as the armpit, the inner thigh, the waist junction, or the tactical visor of the helmet, it could be very dangerous, with the potential to penetrate.
